Skills training programme
What's Happening now
The skills training programme supported by Seneca Trust is a very impactful programme.
Young people with disabilities (particularly learning disabilities) train in the following areas, according to their passion and strengths:
- Automobile industry; they train to become auto-mechanics, auto-electricians and vehicle sprayers
- The catering section – young people are trained in the food and hospitality industry
Trainees are supported to find employment and entrepreneurial opportunities upon completion of their training programmes.
Parents and caregivers of the trainees are actively engaged to ensure surplus motivation for their children who embark on the training programme. From experience we know that this adds to the chance of becoming successful in relation to the training programmes.
We train young people with disabilities in the automotive and catering industries.
We value all support, including but not limited to, vehicle spare parts, tyres, broken down vehicles, catering equipment (fridges/freezers, ovens, pots, pans, etc.), as we use them for training purposes
